Chapter 523: Collection of Strange Objects
Colorful colors bloom in the flames.
Under the scorching flames, the medicine box is like a gem that has been polished of dust stains, emitting soft colorful light. The beautiful and gorgeous light casts a layer of dreamy colors on the meditation room.
Dedicating everything in the flames, what is revealed after the flames is not only the true appearance of the Heart of Miracles, but also the hearts of sacrifice.
No, perhaps it is the hearts of sacrifice that create miracles.
The five people silently looked at the crystal bottles that they did not put back in their hands. Although the bottles were not burned by flames, they emitted colorful light together with the main body. In the light, the originally turbid liquid quickly became clean, and the dirty bottle wall also restored its original crystal clearness and brightness. Open it and smell it, a faint herbal smell mixed with the slightly pungent smell of disinfectant. It is obviously unpleasant, but it makes people involuntarily feel an inexplicable sense of security.
"Ah~~~~Hot, hot, hot."
A scream broke the five people's meditation, and everyone noticed that the fire in the meditation room had gone out, the tables and chairs had all been burned to ashes, and the expensive teacups and tea sets on the table were all broken on the ground. In the middle of the meditation room, Lin Qi, who was smoking and exuding a strong barbecue aroma, was catching the slowly falling small medicine box with both hands, and then...
He screamed from the burns, but subconsciously did not dare to throw it on the ground for fear of breaking the bottle inside.
"The strange object is an indestructible item, classmate Levi, you can throw it on the ground and it won't break." Chairman Ole stared at Lin Qi, who was jumping up and down and throwing his hands together, expressionlessly for a few seconds, until he was annoyed by the miserable screams, and then he sighed deeply, "This is the content of the first lesson of the basics of strange objects."
"Cut it off, it's done, it's done." Lin Qi realized that he had done something stupid, threw away the medicine box, and jumped away from the floor that he almost burned red, jumped back to the two girls and shook his hands desperately, and did not forget to make a standard student-style protest, "I graduated from the intermediate level, and I didn't study strange objects at all. It's beyond the syllabus, beyond the syllabus."
"So no matter what level of teachers say, the syllabus is dead, but people are alive." The chairman was too lazy to look at Lin Qi, and while observing the bottle in his hand, he said leisurely, "Anyway, whoever is in pain knows it himself."
Hiss, the guy who said sarcastic things is really hateful, and you, don't laugh.
"You asked for it." The policewoman who was holding a water bottle to help him wash his hands and cool them down glared at him and grumbled in a low voice. Her tone was full of complaints and dissatisfaction, but it made Lynch feel very subtle and warm in his heart. "Who told you to rush and do it without thinking it through first? You should let you burn it for a while longer."
"Don't hit him hard. He has several blisters."
Miss Diana was gently stroking his swollen palms, wasting her energy to help his burned hands heal faster. The soft little hand stroked the palm of his hand, and the numb feeling went from the hand to the heart.
However, what does it mean to waste energy?
"Hehe..."
Miss Earl bit her lip and chuckled as she lowered her head. A few strands of hair stuck to her face. It was unknown whether it was because she was burned just now or for other reasons. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, which made Lynch subconsciously move closer.
"Hmm."
The old cough immediately destroyed Lynch's courage. Lynch immediately took two steps back and put on a serious attitude under the meaningful gazes of the two ladies.
At this time, the other three big men ignored the little thoughts between the young people and were studying several beautiful bottles. The bottles at this time were not only no longer dirty, but more importantly, there was no trend of further pollution.
"What kind of fire is this? The effect is much better than I thought." Chairman Ole admired the crystal bottle in the light and sighed, "It is no longer dirty because it is thoroughly purified, just like when you first got it. I calculated that it would take at least ten hours for visible changes to appear. It only took a few minutes. I originally estimated that it would take several hours to burn to have the current effect."
"This should be the flame from Cthugya. This child has ambiguous relationships with several evil gods. There are so many marks on his body that those believers of the scorching sun want to take action when they see him, but they still have reason and dare not take action." Trinlais The bishop smiled and patted Lynch on the shoulder, "It seems that the flame from theocracy can greatly enhance the purification effect, but I don't know if ordinary flames can work."
"It should be no problem." The chairman replied, "After all, it is the concept of flame purification that works. What, do you have any doubts?"
"I'm just thinking about how to contain it more safely." Seeing the doubt in Lynch's eyes, the archbishop explained, "After all, the issues to consider in the containment of strange objects are more complicated. The containment conditions are only one of them. The real trouble is how to ensure that it will never break through the containment to the greatest extent."
This made Lynch realize the problem.
This time it was discovered in advance, what about next time? This time there is enough time, I can slowly burn and purify it, what about next time? What if it is discovered that this thing is contaminated again at midnight? Can I really rush over in time to deal with it?
The voice of Officer Natalie came to my ears: "You have been in contact for too short a time, you may not know that the containment of strange objects has always been a big problem. Whether it is the Watcher or the major churches, there are special containment agencies to ensure that strange objects will not get out of control. It is too easy to go wrong if it is handed over to non-professionals for safekeeping, just like what happened just now."
"There may be problems with specialized containment institutions. After all, few people have personally handled advent-level artifacts, and each advent-level artifact has its own characteristics, which must be explored slowly. But for some things we have the opportunity to remedy, and for some things we only have one chance."
Trinles flipped his wrist, and a hand-like flame emerged from his palm. While burning the crystal bottle, he explained to Lynch:
"All artifacts have very complex rules for preservation, and they are very targeted. For example, some artifacts need someone to keep an eye on them at all times. Once the sight is removed, it will flash over and break the target's neck. And some artifacts need to keep someone around, but no one can look at it, otherwise it will go out of control."
Fuck, it's so troublesome.
Lynch thought about the preservation methods of these artifacts on him... Forget it, I still don't compare.
"I suggest that we keep it burning all the time, and then have someone check it every hour." The chairman suggested, "This should ensure safety."
"Well, I think so too, and I will be responsible for supervision personally. The advent-level wonders are still too dangerous, and I don't trust others. Do you think it's okay, Ms. Nightingale?"
"I have no objection, as long as I can guarantee that I can take people to conduct research at any time." The old woman sighed, "The results of the drug will be out soon, and I hope there is no need to study it, but..."
Lin Qi pursed his lips, and his heart was lifted.
Yes, the efforts of these days should finally have a result.
